No WARN/CRIT thresholds when using ifw-api

Icinga 2 Icinga for Windows
,
1

Hi guys,

we are using Icinga for Windows for a while now and works very well for us !
Lately I have enabled the communication between the Icinga master and the IfW clients directly via API calls.

What I really liked, was the performance, execution of checks was much faster.

But just today I realized, that I can no longer set warning/critical thresholds for checks in Icinga Director - they are ignored.

I am using for example the “Invoke-IcingaCheckCPU” command and have a service template where I set the thresholds. But I am not able to see this variables in the curl command and they just do not work.

I have switched back by no longer loading “ifw-api” in the “Powershell Base” command and thresholds are working again.

Can you tell me what I have missed?

Best regards
Volke
